Ronchamp is a French commune located in the Haute-Saône department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. It is the base of the community of Rahin and Chérimont communes. The most famous monument in the town is the Notre-Dame du Haut chapel, one of the major works of sacred architecture of the twentieth century. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it was built in stone and concrete from 1953 to 1955 on the plans of the Franco-Swiss architect Le Corbusier at the top of the Bourlémont hill (474 m) which overlooks the city center . The town is also classified as a green station, an ecotourism label.

The Planche des Belles Filles, finish line of the 3 Ballons, is named after a legend during the Thirty Years' War. The legend tells that the girls from the neighbor village committed suicide to escape Swedish mercenaries. Nowadays, it is for sporting reasons that it attracts attention. Culminating at 1148 meters above sea level, this col is located in Haute-Saône and it is feared because of its hard ascensions between 8 and 24%.
